Went on the day long Atherton Tablelands tour and could not recommend it more highly.
The tour started at approx 8am and proceeded to take us to many local businesses that presented the very best of the fruits, foods & drinks of the region.
We went to:
- Rainforestation Nature Park in the Kuranda forest for a delicious breakfast of damper, tropical fruits / jams and tea & coffee
- DeBrueys Boutique Tropical Winery in Mareeba to try local tropical fruit wines & liqueurs,
- The Humpy Nut World for amazing platters of seasonal local fruits for morning tea and the opportunity to buy a fantastic variety of vegetables, tropical fruits, hundreds of different varieties of nuts, dried fruits and locally produced jams & sauces,
- Australian Platypus Park for lunch (amazing food) and a chance to see some platypuses (or is that platypi?),
- Gallo Dairyland for an afternoon cheese tasting,
- Mount Uncle Distillery with some of the best gins / whiskeys & liqueurs to sample & buy, and finally
- Platypus Park on a privately owned property for a final drink & nibbles.
It was certainly a long day as we returned to our accommodation around 5.45pm.
Our tour guide, Chris, made the tour even more enjoyable as he regaled us with historical information about the area as well as some of his own experiences. Big thumbs up Chris
Highly recommended.

What an amazing day. We had Dale as our tour guide. He was a wealth of knowledge so we had a great history tour. The food and alcohol sampling was fantastic. All the places we visited were spectacular and the people were very friendly. I would recommend this tour. It is a great way to enjoy the tablelands. Thanks Dale for a wonderful day. The little secret spot at the end was a beautiful way to end the tour.

I went on this trip today and I couldnt recommend it more! Our guide Dale was fab, so knowledgeable and had some great stories. We visited 7 stops, supporting local businesses and trying some amazing food and drinks. We spent a good amount of time at each venue and the variation in snacks/meals/drinks worked well.
I was a solo traveler and felt at ease with the group and Dale.
Great value for money and a lovely day out!
